June 9, 2025 (Joshua Tree, California) – V13 premieres Jesika von Rabbit’s newest single, “Pretty Dum” today. “You take one look at Jesika von Rabbit, you hear one snippet of a song, and you immediately know that she was born to do what she is doing,” writes Aaron Willschick at V13. “That impression is only accentuated even more as you make your way through her new album, Bunnywood Babylon,” The record drops this Friday, June 13th, 2025 at Dionysus Records.

“’Pretty Dum’ is one of my favorite tracks off the new album,” says Jesika von Rabbit. “It was the last song added to the collection and came to me suddenly one afternoon, almost subconsciously urging me to get it out. It's vulnerable, it's self-deprecating, it's honest but it's also fun and lighthearted. I think it makes a great opening track and sets the tone for the rest of the album; it's rustic meets groovy swirl."
“Our new album Bunnywood Babylon is like an ornate two-story house. Each room has a different theme all decorated by the same person, Jesika von Rabbit,” explains bassist Lee Joseph. “The opening track, ‘Pretty Dum,’ is the entryway of the house where you walk in and see a portrait of Jesika von Rabbit contemplating. What is she contemplating? The world around her, and her past, present, and future! It's also a very catchy tune, with lyrics that many of us can relate to!”
To celebrate the album, the band will headline three record release parties:
Friday, June 13th at Pappy & Harriet’s in Pioneertown, CA
Saturday, June 14th at Casbah in San Diego, CA
Friday, June 20th at The Redwood Bar in Los Angeles, CA
